Idiot

 

How fast could he have possibly been going? Looks to be no faster than 45-50mph?? I can't understand how he lost control...and then not even attempt to correct the slide. Hmm...

 

I agree, it appears to be relatively low speed and it doesn't sound like he is in "vtec". All I can think is that his tires must have been cold.

 

WTF?!?! Did he pull the e-brake?! How the hell did he do THAT going THAT SLOW?!

 

its an old vid. and it can be done easily with bald OEM S02's.

 

Wasnt worth the 12 MB download on dial up

 

it is very strange why that happen since the turn is not sharp at all......

 

I think he was distracted, for a split second, and then that left turn just came up on him too fast......
you can tell that right before he looses it, he tries to compensate by turning the wheel back to the right, but it's just too little too late.

 

Goes to show how nice all those Bimmer guys are, not one of them pulled over to ask if he was OK. I remember when I was with the caravan going up to Laguna Seca, I pulled over off the side of the road cause my friend wanted to drive. EVERYBODY stopped in the middle of the one lane road and asked if I was ok. Thanks guys!

I mean this guy freakin spinned out and was facing the opposite direction of traffic and they didn't even give him a second thought. Thats just plain mean if you ask me.
